First, I will post a problem. You will have one week from the day I post it to try to get the correct answer. If you get the correct answer, I will put your name in a hat. On the last day I will pick a name out of the hat. That person will get to pick a prize at school.
When you want to answer the question, comment on the post and be sure to sign your name. I won't reveal any answers until the week is over, so do not be surprised if you don't see your post right away. I will approve it after I have gotten all of the answers.
Good luck!
Our first problem:
Cassidy has twelve American coins in her pocket. If she has exactly sixty-three cents in dimes, nickels, and pennies, how many dimes does Cassidy have in her pocket?
Hello students!
ReplyDeleteThe correct answer is 3 dimes.
mrs.smith,
ReplyDeleteI got the answer!!
first I tryed 3 pennies,and 12 nickeles but they asked how many dimes, so that didn't work.
so then I tryed 3 pennies, 6 nickles,and 3 dimes and that worked!
I knew the three cents had to be 3 pennies,other wise if you put a dime it wouldn't work cause you would have two extra cents.
I really like the blog. you should tell the tree huggers about the blog! I bet they would love it.
You could put ,3rd,and 4rth grade priblems in there! so the tree huggers could do the problem alittle harder.And if are class wanted to,they could do fourth grade story problems.
Well,I'm out,
